Default How can I tell if mine works?

Try the AM broadcast band first (band switch at 1.0 MHz).Set the
RF gain to 3 o'clock. Set the AF at 9 o'clk.Notch at 12 o,clk. PBT and
RIT at 12 o'clock (center) Set selectivity at 4 KHz(or 2.3 in case
if the filter slot is empty) Aux program set for normal. Mute/rec
pushed in.Praamp off(not depressed).AM same.Speaker-has a built-in
monitoring unit, it is MUCH better with an outbord speaker fed from a
standard 1/4inch audio jack (in the back). The bottom row of push
switches such as cal,nb ,agc,count ad rit sre left inoff(not depressed).
Now, plug in the AC power cord and connect to ANY piece of wire over 1o
feet long to an rca jack(in the back) labeled main and set the antenna
switch to position main... You have found
one hell of a radio !!!
